⚡ Take control, dominate the track with precision power!
The RC ESC 10A Brushed Motor Speed Controller delivers reliable 10-amp current for smooth speed regulation, supporting forward and reverse functions. Compatible with a wide range of brushed motors (130 to 380 size), it’s designed for easy installation in RC cars and boats, offering versatile and precise motor control without brake functionality.

Works great!
I lost the remote to a toy car as a kid and a simple mod with this esc and a servo motor, I was able to turn it into a hobby grade r/c car. hahaWorks as expected and didn't even need to calibrate the esc.Honestly, from what I heard, it's not worth getting the esc with the brake. You're probably driving a small r/c car or a boat and the reverse plays a better role in braking than stopping the motor. The braking requires more thumb stick control.

Off to the races
If you don’t need to drive anything particularly large this ESC can definitely get the job done. The biggest selling point to me was the price, some ESCs are very pricey and while you don’t get a lot of bells and whistles this thing will definitely drive a small motor. I am still a little confused about the indicator LED but ultimately this is of small consequence. There is a little to want in power and at rest it makes a little more noise than I would like but I only paid six dollars so overall I am pleased.

Small size, works as expected
These are great and simple motor controllers. I just wanted something small and relatively low power to use on a small scale tank project with hobby sized brushed motors. So I didn't need anything like a brake feature. I wired them both up to accept a single battery input. Pretty much works exactly as expected.

Can be used for plane use if reverse is turned off in transmitter settings.
To start, I'm not using this ESC as was expected by the manufacturer. Purchased it to use on a large throw-glider conversion to RC. I'm using it to power two coreless 8520 brushed motors, set up in series, with a 2s 7.4v battery. Bench tested, I think the ESC/motors configuration are putting out enough thrust for this glider, which flies 40-50 yards with a light throw. The problem I had is that this ESC has both forward and reverse, and RC planes don't need a reverse (likely to be a problem). Reverse cannot be turned off in the ESC. I was able to deal with it by adjusting the low calibration of the throttle channel in my FlySky FS-i6X transmitter from 100% to 0%. High side is still 100%. The motors only come on at the throttle stick's center position and above, but that's okay for my purposes. I expect these little motors to be running close to 100% most of the time anyway, and it's better than having the motors accidentally put in reverse, causing a crash. Anyway, the ESC seems to work in this setup, and was the right price for this low-budget project.How I turned off reverse in FlySky FS-i6X Menu: OK (push and hold) - SETUP - END POINTS - CH3 (left 100%) - hold DOWN, reduce to 0% - hold CANCEL to save. This makes more sense if you already know how the menus in the transmitter work. YouTube has that info.

Mostly good, frustrating for tanks
I got these because they'd come in one day to put in a rush-built 150g combat robot, and they mostly worked.For the n20 motors I'm using they're massive overkill, and they're relatively bulky and heavy for the 150g weight class, but they were the smallest ones I could find on Amazon that would come next day so I can't fault them for that.However, they have a maddening, intermittent delay which makes driving a 2wd robot (tank style with elevator/aileron mixing) very difficult. If you push the stick full forward, one motor starts before the other so the robot banks hard before taking of straight in a direction you didn't intend, not to mention the issues with turning and course correcting. Plus because it's intermittent you can't even adjust for it. It seems like if you start slow the effects of the delay are reduced though so still kinda usable.I think if the ESCs were used independently (like in an RC car with one motor and a servo for steering) you wouldn't notice a thing, but because the timing is important with tank style robots it's pretty frustrating. So whether or not this matters will depend entirely on your use case.The super bright red LEDs are very cool, especially how they vary based on the input. Saves me the effort of wiring up a power indicator LED.I'll be replacing these in my robot when I get new, smaller, lighter ones in but that was always the plan. I'll hang on to these to use for weapon motors and the like though.

Low Power Applications only... remove and replace Insulation as it burns easily!!
Work well for very low power applications. Beware if you draw to much current it is possible to create instant smoke and that will cause the plastic shrink wrap to burst into flame. Ask me how I know this!! My advise is to remove the plastic insulation tube and replace it with proper heat shrink. This will prevent the flame from occurring and burning the model and anything else that might burn from burning.

Very nice ESC units for small brushed motors
These ESC's just fit the bill for me. I build miniature radio controlled boats and now use these exclusively to control the obviously small electric motor. Do be aware that most of the time, the red motor lead should be connected to the negative motor contact or the motor direction will be reversed. I did get 1 unit that burned up the first time I used it but out of the 12 or so I have used so far (and just ordered 8 more) they are a good buy.

Junk. No data sheet provided. Runs for about 3 seconds after powering on then goes unresponsive.
Runs for about 3 seconds after powering on then goes unresponsive. Spent a few days trying to diagnose why and then gave up and used a different brand esc.
